I've been painting something new.... Pumpkin Pendants!

It is a 1 1/2" wooden disc. I've base coated the disc and painted the pumpkin and coated it in an epoxy sealer with a few tiny beads sprinkled on top. A bail is glued to the back. I've added a copper colored ribbon to hang it or you can purchase your own chain and change it out for a different look. The pictures taken with the flash make the ribbon look orange. I'll have more finished soon and will get their pictures taken and uploaded to my online gift shop: http://www.fromtheheartart.com/
Watch for more to come soon!

Another puppy! He is resting safe and secure in his little dog house.

The Puppies are here!

The puppies are here and ready for a home! The "Good News Bassett Hound" is available with a white background or a blue background. I can personalize the "The Good News" Newspaper with your info.

I painted this puppy design for a brand new baby boy! His mommy is decorating his room with puppies. Fun!

In June I received a special request for this poem with a design painted around it. It is a poem that is known among parents of children with Down's Syndrome. I did a little research on Down's syndrome. I immediately fell in love with those precious children. Their faces are so beautiful with joy and innocence and trust. I kept seeing children peeping their heads over a fence but couldn't get that worked in with the poem. It finally clicked with me to paint two separate pictures. After that great revelation, it all fell in place! Well, the baby was born before I completed the pictures. I've seen a picture and she is so beautiful! Like a precious baby doll. Her family must be very special for God to choose them to care for this special creation. May He bless them all! I've been blessed just by working on this design for her bedroom. And I've decided that I think this poem really fits us all....not just children with Down's syndrome.
